I have one that's for sale. My main complaint with these are the fret markers. They are painted on using a flat black paint that chips off if you accidentally hit the fret board with a pick. I cut a piece of clear Plexi to protect mine. Other than that, it's not a bad starter. It stays in tune and has a mellow sound.

It was my first steel. I think there are better ones for the price.
